We also provide teachers with educational resources and tools to prepare their lessons from home, recommending activities for their students and supporting them in carrying out distance learning.
Furthermore we are adapting our content and tools, to reach the most vulnerable, the unconnected: videos to be shared, offline app with training contents, printed teachers guides and workbooks, podcast and radio recordings, etc.
